Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate differences of the bowel wall thickness visible in conventional ultrasound and bowel perfusion using quantitative Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound in patients with Crohn´s disease in comparison with healthy controls and patients with food allergy.
Detailed description
After being informed about the study and potential risks, all participants giving written consent will undergo conventional transabdominal ultrasound and Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound of the bowel wall with measurement of the bowel wall thickness. In addition a continuous video sequence during Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound is recorded and perfusion kinetics from the video clips are analyzed using a specific quantification software.
